Alternatives to grow your wealth

This is Jeff Wareham, ScotiaMcLeod Wealth Advisor, with some thoughts
for investors outgrowing their mutual funds.

Many investors have chosen to put their RRSP contribution into cash,
and this is understandable with the damage to portfolios caused by
equities, Cash is safe, but it won't grow. If you are afraid to buy
equities, there are alternatives to grow your wealth. On Wednesday, I
spoke of the opportunity presented by corporate bonds. Many are
oferring near double digit returns. There are a couple additional
alternatives. Convertible debentures sound complicated, but they are
essentially bonds that will benefit if stocks recover. Preferred
shares are offering exceptional income without the risk of common
stock. Tune in tomorrow at 8:30 when I discuss these options to grow
your portfolio.

Do you want to discuss your alternatives?
Have you outgrown your mutual funds?
